Games usually take about ten minutes, including five minutes of deliberation and discussion. In-game, this represents the accused being killed by the angry mob of Villagers.One Night Ultimate Werewolf is a fast-paced, bluffing card game for 3-10 players in which players each take on a role very different to each other You could be.If the accused really was a Werewolf, the Villagers win (yay)! If they’re actually a Villager, the Werewolves win and the Villagers have to live the rest of their lives plagued with doubt and guilt over killing an innocent person (not really). At the end of the game, everyone votes on a person to accuse of being a Werewolf, and the person who gets the most votes has their role card is flipped over.
If there’s only one werewolf, they get to look at a card in the middle. Werewolves, meanwhile, wake up and look at each other to see who’s on their side. Each role card has a unique action, like the Seer, who can look at another player’s card or two cards in the middle, or the Robber, who gets to look at another player’s card and then swap with them. People look at their own cards, then everyone closes their eyes for the “night” phase.If you have the One Night Ultimate Werewolf app (highly recommended), your phone will call each of the roles and tell them to ‘wake up’ (open their eyes) and perform their action. Everyone knows what roles are included in the game, but no one knows which ones are in the middle and which ones are in the hands of other players.
Emotions will run high, trusts will be broken, lies will be told, and in the end you’ll learn how well you really know your friends. Is Nic really a werewolf, biding his time so he can create a better alibi, or is he really a Seer who’s waiting for a Werewolf to claim to be a role card that’s actually in the center of the table? You notice that your friend Ricky keeps trying to steer accusations toward Nic, almost like he’s desperate to point suspicion away from himself…maybe Ricky is the real Werewolf…There’s always a human element to the game, and the fun lies in balancing sound logic with intuition. The game ends up being something like a courtroom drama, complete with people shouting “ARE YOU THE WEREWOLF? I WANT THE TRUTH!”Trying to win this game based solely on evidence and logic only takes you so far, so the more comfortable you are with reading friends and playing off peoples’ emotions the better time you’ll have.For example: everyone is ganging up on your friend Nic for refusing to tell people what his role is, but he says it’s because he wants to catch a Werewolf out in a lie. Either way, it’s up to the Villagers to figure out the truth.Credit: YouTube, Tom Alspach What Makes It So Fun?There are few things more satisfying than successfully fooling all your friends as a Werewolf or, alternatively, perfectly deducing everyone’s role and catching a crafty Werewolf friend in a contradiction. Alternatively, you can choose to say nothing at all. This is where the chaos starts, because anybody can lie about who they are, what they did during the night phase, or what they know.
